Maintenance Instructions
1. Vibrator Lubricaton
The vibrators are lubricated as supplied. The lubrication is good for 2,000 to
5,000 hours. SEE MANUFACTURING INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Isolators
Because of the various size Live Bins and the varying density of products
being handled, we use three (3) styles of isolators:
1) Solid Rubber Mounts
These require no maintenance, only periodic checking for damage due to
aging, chemical attach, or severe overloading.
2) Air Mounts
These require periodic checking for loss of pressure. If re-pressurization
is required, standard tire filling equipment can be used to fill mount to the
proper pressure.
3) Liquid Filled Air Mounts
These are air mounts that are filled with a mixture of water and
antifreeze. They are pressurized to a design height of 5 _ to 6 _ inches.
If pressure is lost, they can be filled using an air hose and fittings fitted to
a water tap.
WHEN INQUIRING ABOUT ANY LIVE BIN, ALWAYS REFER TO THE
SERIAL NUMBER STAMPED ON THE METALFAB NAMEPLATE.
